Pet Cares
Welcome! I have over 20years experience working with dogs. I like to look at my pet boarding as an Airbnb for pets! I am a former service dog trainer. I am currently enrolled in dog training courses through Rover. I will be completing a Veterinarian Assistant program this summer.

Ratings and reviews
Received snapshots and updates. Eli seemed very happy.
We have used Holly twice and have been so happy with how well she has taken care of our dog! We get daily updates and feel like she truly treats our dog as her own.
Holly communicated with me daily. She sent pictures of my babies. I highly recommend her!
I was nervous about leaving my timid and anxious dog with a stranger but Holly made Molly feel at home and put my mind at ease with photos and updates. I will definitely get ahold of Holly again to dog sit!
Maverick loves Holly! I am so glad I found you! Thank you for all that you do!
Holly was absolutely amazing with Milo! She sent us lots of pictures and videos throughout his stay, which made us feel completely comfortable knowing he was happy and well cared for. She even double-checked his feeding schedule and was kind enough to accommodate us at the last minute, which was a huge help. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Holly with Milo again. Highly recommend!

Schedule
There is always someone home or available. I work & study remotely. I do provide talking dog buttons. If your dog uses them let me know & we will have them available with words your dog uses & hopefully learn some new ones! Anything that is trending that promoted positive life quality for dogs I usually have on hand or am incorporating it into use Each day I incorporate daily walks, cuddles, & basic training. Basic training is eye contact, leash & buddy walking. I provide one on one time for the dogs each daily. I make sure no dog feels left out.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In the summer months their last night of boarding they get a special walk to the ice cream store to enjoy a pup cup & extra one on one time. On weekends in the summers. I am outside most days . The dog/s can enjoy ice bowls, kiddie pool, water sprinklers and shade in the backyard. In the summer I offer water play daily! They have free will to come in & out of the house into the fenced in yard all day! In the fall & winter months the dogs can enjoy outside time by a warm outdoor doggie bonfire. There are areas they can romp in the leaves & explore. I also incorporate daily walks weather permitting. On colder days or rainy days we have a rainy paw day. If the dogs are open to it they can enjoy some doggy stretches, Spaw services such as coconut oil rubs on their paw pads, homemade doggie treats, and dog related movies and cuddles!
Pets
A typical day
Everyday there is a AM & PM walk. I base the walks on dog size, age & stamina so no one is overtired & each dog has a choice to stay back & rest in the house or to participate. Usually they all say yes! Each day I provide one activity in addition to the daily walk. Here is a breakdown of what your pets stay looks like! The first day of boarding is focused on settling in & a walk with friends. Everyday I do a paw pad check if allowed they can also get a coconut oil rub on paws. The following days I provide a daily activity. such as doggy stretches & massage doggy cooking/ sampling dog friendly treats & food pup cups Glow ball fetch stuffed bones & doggy bonfire In the summer I offer water play daily. This includes ice bowls with dog friendly fresh fruit, kiddie pool, water sprinklers & squishy water balls Spaw activities I include are brushing/light grooming, one on one time, paw pad check with paw pad fur trim & coconut oil paw pad rub. I do not trim nails but I can work on filing them if needed just ask. 🩵 My repeat clients know to grab a bone or yard pretzel when they see me prepping the fire pit! It's so cute! On the last night of your dogs stay they can have a pup cup or a doggy bonfire. For pup cups we walk to our local ice cream shop with friends! Again all of the above is included!! If your dog is only staying a few days or popping in for doggy day care let me know what activities they would like & I will do them!
